It encompasses the agonizing effects of depression, mania, hospitalizations, and unemployment. In recent years, Steven worked 21 years as a desk clerk or cashier and relied on Social Security. The author admits to being mercurial and emotional, having ups and downs, the effects of bipolar daily, and no criminal record.
